Kitchen hood Repair and Service Gainesville

A range hood is an indispensable element in any kitchen. During cooking, combustion products such as carbon dioxide appear, which negatively affect human health. A hood helps solve this problem by drawing in harmful gases and vapors, partially changing the composition of the air in the room. Sanitary standards require 8-10 times the exchange of air to ensure normal human performance.

There are different brands and types of hoods, and all of them can break or fail over time. The main causes of breakdowns are natural wear and tear, manufacturing defects and violation of operating rules. In any case, if there is a problem with the hood, it is better to contact a specialist. Do-it-yourself hood repair is not the best option.

Firstly, not all owners know the structure and operating principle of the hood. Secondly, attempting to repair it yourself without specialized equipment can aggravate the problem by compromising the integrity of the parts and structure. Third, online repair advice is not always reliable, and the solutions described in the articles may not be suitable for your specific situation.

It is better to entrust the repair of kitchen hoods to a professional who has the necessary knowledge and equipment to properly restore the functionality of the device.

Causes of kitchen hood failure

The reasons for hood failure are similar regardless of the brand. Here are the main ones:

• The hood does not work. If the problem is not a lack of voltage, it is most likely due to a fuse or capacitor. We remind you that DIY repairs can be dangerous. Better call our hotline;
• Weak hood draft. After lights not working, this is one of the most common problems. Causes may include clogged or dirty filters and poor or no draft in the ventilation system. Cleaning the filters solves the first problem. Experts recommend cleaning filters regularly. To check the ventilation draft, you can use a lighter: bring it to the ventilation hole, and if the flame does not deviate, then there is no draft;
• Loud fan noise. This may be due to poor assembly at the factory or poor mounting of the hood to the wall. Tighten the fasteners and the noise may disappear;
• The hood works by blowing air. If the hood works in reverse, the problem may be in the kitchen ventilation. Silencing it should solve the problem;
• The hood does not change speed. This may be caused by a faulty control unit, a burnt contact or a start capacitor. Replacing the capacitor often solves the problem.
